Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the comparison of the power of test statistic by a goodness of fit test for Four Parameter Kappa Distribution. The test with  6 types of goodness-of-fit-test include Kolmogorov–Smirnov (gif.latex?KS ), Anderson-Darling ( gif.latex?AD), Modified Anderson-Darling (B2 ), Cramer-von Mises( gif.latex?CVM), Zhang Anderson-Darling (gif.latex?ZAL ) and Zhang Cramer von-Mises ( gif.latex?ZCVM). For estimating function, the power of test statistics with two distributions was symmetry distribution and asymmetric distribution. However, the researchers were applying Monte-Carlo method for simulation with 10,000 replicated. The results show that, the most powerful test statistics are gif.latex?ZAL,&space;ZCVM ,  and gif.latex?ADfor symmetric distribution, and the gif.latex?ZAL  is the most powerful test for asymmetric distribution.
